IMO - the one over the belts and the one for the transmission (under the battery/fuse block - depending ion year) are the easiest, although they require support from below. I’ve DIY’d them a few times.
The one in the rear is a nuisance to get to, but if you search the board, you’ll see that it has a reputation for not going bad.
The ‘dog bone’ torque rod that connects the underside of the transmission to the frame is easy to access but can be hard depending on rusted bolts and degree of deterioration of the rubber. Some people have been successful replacing the bushings in the rod in situ - again search the board.
Many folks on the board (including me) have found that the lion’ share of the mount related vibration can be addressed by replacing the mount over the belts, upper transmission (under the battery/fuse) and dog bone. The lower rear doesn’t do much for vibration.
RM Hutchinson is the OEM supplier, and sometimes less $$ than Genuine Saab.
